These are fundamentally different technologies, the camera you linked uses structured light and stereo vision + ML to get depth. It has an order of magnitude less range and an order of magnitude more error. The Sony sensor is time of flight SPAD, it's much closer to giving you a ground truth you can trust than the Intel camera and much more capable of rejecting environmental noise. |

Am curious what the applications for this are. Is this for drones? is this for auto-focus and or auto tracking? Thinking of Insta360's new addon for their small gimbal, which adds auto tracking; maybe similar uses? https://www.theverge.com/news/614366/insta360-flow-2-pro-ai-... Sony may not really know to be fair!
On the very low end, I'd mention the very affordable single chip 8x8 pixel 4m depth vl53l5cx. Used by ETH Zurich on a swarm of very lightweight mapping drones! https://www.st.com/en/imaging-and-photonics-solutions/vl53l5... https://hackaday.com/2024/10/11/tiny-drones-do-distributed-m...
